    Install the proprietary ATI drivers from the repository.

    this would be the link to the repository
    Additional package repositories - openSUSE
    I used ATI proprietary drivers since many years with full success and zero problems (my current ati was supported by openSuSE by default).
    just follow the howto (read before installing)
    SDB:ATI - openSUSE
    as the install maybe (will be) on your shell (CLI), you may want to have the path to the downloaded driver installer written on paper).

    No. No doggy style fetch and install in Linux. Install from the repository directly.
